Summary:
In this first critical history of the National Gallery of Canada, Douglas Ord explores how, in the gallery's development, art has consistently been linked to notions of religious truth, national spirit, and hallowed atmosphere, culminating in Moshe Safdie's design for the institution's current building.

Summary:
In this first critical history of the National Gallery of Canada, Douglas Ord explores how, in the gallery's development, art has consistently been linked to notions of religious truth, national spirit, and hallowed atmosphere, culminating in Moshe Safdie's design for the institution's current building. Integrating accounts of political intrigue and public controversy with philosophy, art theory, and architectural analysis, Ord provides vivid accounts of successive directors' struggles to obtain a permanent home for the nation's art. Ord looks at the gallery's historical and intellectual context - from 1910 when Eric Brown became the gallery's founding director, through Jean Sutherland Boggs, to Shirley Thomson - shedding light on its acquisitions, government policy towards the arts, and the public's deep-rooted suspicion of avant-garde art. In showing how Canadian art came to be housed in a building whose architectural and ideological sources include Gothic cathedrals, Islamic mosques, Egyptian temples, St Peter's Basilica, and the squared-stone facades of the Holy City of Jerusalem, The National Gallery of Canada insightfully explores the relationship of Canada's art and its National Gallery to the project of the Canadian nation state.

Summary:
Architectural design is not limited by geographical, economic or political boundaries. However, the majority of the architecture brought to the world's attention tends to be concentrated in a few countries and located in the wealthier nations of Europe and North America. This "Architectural Design" title seeks to present recent architecture that is situated beyond these familiar boundaries and outside the customary centres of architectural debate. It focuses on architecture that positively benefits from being at the periphery. By presenting work from countries as diverse as Iceland, Guinea, Canada, Portugal, Chile, New Zealand and India, it highlights buildings designed to respond to climatic extremes, remote sites and a broad range of social settings. It also identifies architects who are exploring the potential of materials and limited resources. This work has not only been sought out for attention, but is documented and connected through interviews with selected architects and international contributors who are designing, researching and building at the edge.

Summary:
A rich visual history of one of North America's premier engineering firms and the extraordinary buildings this company engineered. Fifty years after it was founded, the Yolles Partnership continues the larger-than-life engineering tradition on which Canada was built. But its legacy-thousands of structures to date-constitutes an important architectural record of the styles and the statements that have predominated over the last half century. From modernism through structural expression, Yolles celebrates the vision of Morden Yolles and Roland Bergmann and some of the firm's legendary technical accomplishments. Throughout the years, the Yolles Partnership worked with a who's who of Canada's finest architects, including such notables as Peter Dickinson, Irving Grossman and Ray Moriyama, and international luminaries Cesar Pelli and Norman Foster, among others. They designed the structures of some of the country's most memorable buildings. Among them are First Canadian Place, Champlain College at Trent University, Galleria and Heritage Square at BCE Place. Overseas projects included such structures as New York's Battery Park and the famed Docklands Light Railway roof at Canary Wharf in London, England. Designed by Bruce Mau Design, and using narrative, photographs and drawings relating to many of Canada's best-known structures, Yolles provides a fascinating record of modern building in Canada.
